很多 Java 工程师在准备面试时，会刷很多八股文，线程和线程池这一块通常会准备线程的状态、线程的创建方式，Executors 里面的一些工厂方法和为什么不推荐使用这些工厂方法，ThreadPoolExecutor 构造方法的一些参数和执行过程等。
工作中，很多人会使用线程池的 submit 方法 获取 Future 类型的返回值，然后使用 java.util.concurrent.Future#get(long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit) 实现“最多等多久”的效果。
但很多人对此的理解只停留在表面上，稍微问深一点点可能就懵逼了。
比如，java.util.concurrent.Future#get(long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit) 超时之后，当前线程会怎样？线程池里执行对应任务的线程会有怎样的表现？
如果你对这个问题没有很大的把握，说明你掌握的还不够扎实。
最常见的理解就是，“超时以后，当前线程继续执行，线程池里的对应线程中断”，真的是这样吗？
下面给出一个简单的模拟案例：
package basic.thread;
import java.util.concurrent.*;
public class FutureDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws ExecutionException, InterruptedException, TimeoutException {
ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(2);
Future<?> future = executorService.submit(() -> {
try {
demo();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
});
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(threadName + "获取的结果 -- start");
Object result = future.get(100, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
System.out.println(threadName + "获取的结果 -- end :" + result);
}
private static String demo() throws InterruptedException {
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(threadName + ",执行 demo -- start");
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
System.out.println(threadName + ",执行 demo -- end");
return "test";
}
}输出结果：
main获取的结果 -- start
pool-1-thread-1,执行 demo -- start
Exception in thread "main" java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException
at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.get(FutureTask.java:205)
at basic.thread.FutureDemo.main(FutureDemo.java:20)
pool-1-thread-1,执行 demo -- end
我们可以发现：当前线程会因为收到 TimeoutException 而被中断，线程池里对应的线程“却”继续执行完毕。
我们尝试对未完成的线程进行取消，发现 Future#cancel 有个 boolean 类型的参数。
/**
* Attempts to cancel execution of this task. This attempt will
* fail if the task has already completed, has already been cancelled,
* or could not be cancelled for some other reason. If successful,
* and this task has not started when {@code cancel} is called,
* this task should never run. If the task has already started,
* then the {@code mayInterruptIfRunning} parameter determines
* whether the thread executing this task should be interrupted in
* an attempt to stop the task.
*
* <p>After this method returns, subsequent calls to {@link #isDone} will
* always return {@code true}. Subsequent calls to {@link #isCancelled}
* will always return {@code true} if this method returned {@code true}.
*
* @param mayInterruptIfRunning {@code true} if the thread executing this
* task should be interrupted; otherwise, in-progress tasks are allowed
* to complete
* @return {@code false} if the task could not be cancelled,
* typically because it has already completed normally;
* {@code true} otherwise
*/
boolean cancel(boolean mayInterruptIfRunning);看源码注释我们可以知道：
当设置为 true 时，正在执行的任务将被中断（interrupted）；
当设置为 false 时，如果任务正在执行中，那么仍然允许任务执行完成。
此时，为了不让主线程因为超时异常被中断，我们 try-catch 包起来。
package basic.thread;
import org.junit.platform.commons.util.ExceptionUtils;
import java.util.concurrent.*;
public class FutureDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws ExecutionException, InterruptedException, TimeoutException {
ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(2);
Future<?> future = executorService.submit(() -> {
try {
demo();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
});
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- start");
try {
Object result = future.get(100, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- end :" + result);
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果异常:" + ExceptionUtils.readStackTrace(e));
}
future.cancel(false);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- cancel");
}
private static String demo() throws InterruptedException {
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + ",执行 demo -- start");
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + ",执行 demo -- end");
return "test";
}
}
结果：
1653751759233,main获取的结果 -- start
1653751759233,pool-1-thread-1,执行 demo -- start
1653751759343,main获取的结果异常:java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException

1653751760263,pool-1-thread-1,执行 demo -- end
我们发现，线程池里的对应线程在 cancel(false) 时，如果已经正在执行，则会继续执行完成。
package basic.thread;
import org.junit.platform.commons.util.ExceptionUtils;
import java.util.concurrent.*;
public class FutureDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws ExecutionException, InterruptedException, TimeoutException {
ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(2);
Future<?> future = executorService.submit(() -> {
try {
demo();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + Thread.currentThread().getName() + ", Interrupted:" + ExceptionUtils.readStackTrace(e));
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
});
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- start");
try {
Object result = future.get(100, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- end :" + result);
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果异常:" + ExceptionUtils.readStackTrace(e));
}
future.cancel(true);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- cancel");
}
private static String demo() throws InterruptedException {
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + ",执行 demo -- start");
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + ",执行 demo -- end");
return "test";
}
}
执行结果：
1653752011246,main获取的结果 -- start
1653752011246,pool-1-thread-1,执行 demo -- start

可以看出，此时，如果目标线程未执行完，那么会收到 InterruptedException ，被中断。
当然，如果此时不希望目标线程被中断，可以使用 try-catch 包住，再执行其他逻辑。
package basic.thread;
import org.junit.platform.commons.util.ExceptionUtils;
import java.util.concurrent.*;
public class FutureDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws ExecutionException, InterruptedException, TimeoutException {
ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(2);
Future<?> future = executorService.submit(() -> {
demo();
});
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- start");
try {
Object result = future.get(100, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- end :" + result);
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果异常:" + ExceptionUtils.readStackTrace(e));
}
future.cancel(true);
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + "获取的结果 -- cancel");
}
private static String demo() {
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + ",执行 demo -- start");
try {
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + ",执行 demo 被中断，自动降级");
}
System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis() + "," + threadName + ",执行 demo -- end");
return "test";
}
}
执行结果：
1653752219803,main获取的结果 -- start
1653752219803,pool-1-thread-1,执行 demo -- start

我们直接看 java.util.concurrent.Future#get(long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit) 的源码注释，就可以清楚地知道各种情况的表现：
/**
* Waits if necessary for at most the given time for the computation
* to complete, and then retrieves its result, if available.
*
* @param timeout the maximum time to wait
* @param unit the time unit of the timeout argument
* @return the computed result
* @throws CancellationException if the computation was cancelled
* @throws ExecutionException if the computation threw an
* exception
* @throws InterruptedException if the current thread was interrupted
* while waiting
* @throws TimeoutException if the wait timed out
*/
V get(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)
throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException, TimeoutException;我们还可以选取几个常见的实现类，查看下实现的基本思路：
java.util.concurrent.FutureTask#get(long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)
public V get(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)
throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException, TimeoutException {
if (unit == null)
throw new NullPointerException();
int s = state;
if (s <= COMPLETING &&
(s = awaitDone(true, unit.toNanos(timeout))) <= COMPLETING)
throw new TimeoutException();
return report(s);
}java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture#get(long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)
/**
* Waits if necessary for at most the given time for this future
* to complete, and then returns its result, if available.
*
* @param timeout the maximum time to wait
* @param unit the time unit of the timeout argument
* @return the result value
* @throws CancellationException if this future was cancelled
* @throws ExecutionException if this future completed exceptionally
* @throws InterruptedException if the current thread was interrupted
* while waiting
* @throws TimeoutException if the wait timed out
*/
public T get(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)
throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException, TimeoutException {
Object r;
long nanos = unit.toNanos(timeout);
return reportGet((r = result) == null ? timedGet(nanos) : r);
}
/**
* Returns raw result after waiting, or null if interrupted, or
* throws TimeoutException on timeout.
*/
private Object timedGet(long nanos) throws TimeoutException {
if (Thread.interrupted())
return null;
if (nanos <= 0L)
throw new TimeoutException();
long d = System.nanoTime() + nanos;
Signaller q = new Signaller(true, nanos, d == 0L ? 1L : d); // avoid 0
boolean queued = false;
Object r;
// We intentionally don't spin here (as waitingGet does) because
// the call to nanoTime() above acts much like a spin.
while ((r = result) == null) {
if (!queued)
queued = tryPushStack(q);
else if (q.interruptControl < 0 || q.nanos <= 0L) {
q.thread = null;
cleanStack();
if (q.interruptControl < 0)
return null;
throw new TimeoutException();
}
else if (q.thread != null && result == null) {
try {
ForkJoinPool.managedBlock(q);
} catch (InterruptedException ie) {
q.interruptControl = -1;
}
}
}
if (q.interruptControl < 0)
r = null;
q.thread = null;
postComplete();
return r;
}
java.util.concurrent.Future#cancel 也一样
/**
* Attempts to cancel execution of this task. This attempt will
* fail if the task has already completed, has already been cancelled,
* or could not be cancelled for some other reason. If successful,
* and this task has not started when {@code cancel} is called,

* then the {@code mayInterruptIfRunning} parameter determines
* whether the thread executing this task should be interrupted in

*
* <p>After this method returns, subsequent calls to {@link #isDone} will

*
* @param mayInterruptIfRunning {@code true} if the thread executing this

* {@code true} otherwise
*/
boolean cancel(boolean mayInterruptIfRunning);
java.util.concurrent.FutureTask#cancel
public boolean cancel(boolean mayInterruptIfRunning) {
if (!(state == NEW &&
UNSAFE.compareAndSwapInt(this, stateOffset, NEW,
mayInterruptIfRunning ? INTERRUPTING : CANCELLED)))
return false;
try { // in case call to interrupt throws exception
if (mayInterruptIfRunning) {
try {
Thread t = runner;
if (t != null)
t.interrupt();
} finally { // final state
UNSAFE.putOrderedInt(this, stateOffset, INTERRUPTED);
}
}
} finally {
finishCompletion();
}
return true;
}
可以看到 mayInterruptIfRunning 为 true 时，会执行 Thread#interrupt 方法
java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture#cancel
/**
* If not already completed, completes this CompletableFuture with
* a {@link CancellationException}. Dependent CompletableFutures
* that have not already completed will also complete
* exceptionally, with a {@link CompletionException} caused by
* this {@code CancellationException}.
*
* @param mayInterruptIfRunning this value has no effect in this
* implementation because interrupts are not used to control
* processing.
*
* @return {@code true} if this task is now cancelled
*/
public boolean cancel(boolean mayInterruptIfRunning) {
boolean cancelled = (result == null) &&
internalComplete(new AltResult(new CancellationException()));
postComplete();
return cancelled || isCancelled();
}
通过注释我们也发现，不同的实现类对参数的“效果”也有差异。
我们学习时不应该想当然，不能纸上谈兵，对于不太理解的地方，可以多看源码注释，多看源码，多写 DEMO 去模拟或调试。
